Hi Charles,
This question seems to need more specificity. People can reasonably
disagree on details, especially if a space appears to be an object of
markup, or there are expectations further downstream about space
explicitly tagged/formatted. For example, in the following variation...
<p>
<anchor> </anchor>
The rain in <bold> <underline> Spain </underline> </bold> <italic> is
</italic> wet.
</p>
...what is the expected output?
OK, I've tried this a bunch of ways and failed (using XSLT 2.0).
The XML I'm working with has a bunch of unwanted whitespace in all
sorts of places, but looking just at paragraphs, it can have
<p>
The rain in <bold>Spain</bold> <italic>is</italic> wet.
</p>
